Very sad. Why can’t they open their own business? May God let her wasters be wasted. They will die shameful deaths with their children and generations yet unborn. If you kill a fellow human being, can you add the remainder of their life to yours? Alhaja Rasheeda, Allah forgive your sins and give you rest in paradise. Amin
